AT&T Now Shipping Refurbished iPhone 5s for $99

Between a $199 iPhone 5 from Apple and a $99 iPhone 5 from AT&T, what would you choose?

Chances are you’d go with the latter, but note that the American carrier is slapping this price on refurbished (pre-owned) units with a two-year wireless contract.

If you don’t mind buying an iPhone that has been returned by its previous owner, refurbished by Apple and put back on sale by AT&T, you can now purchase the latest version of the handset at half its original asking price.
